Simulating Cancer Cell Migration in Microgravity with COMSOL®
Researchers used multiphysics simulation to determine how microgravity effects the migration of metastatic cancer cells. Their results could have new implications for therapy and treatments.
Studying Zone Electrophoresis with COMSOL Multiphysics®
Zone electrophoresis enables scientists to study nucleic acids, biopolymers, and proteins in a wide range of areas. COMSOL Multiphysics® can be used to take a closer look at this process.
Analyzing a Unique Poroelastic Metamaterial with Simulation
This blog post combines the subjects of 3D printing and metamaterials, featuring a group that used simulation-based research to analyze a unique poroelastic metamaterial.
Comparing 2 Approaches for Modeling Electronic Chip Cooling
We go over 2 modeling approaches for electronic chip cooling problems. 1 way models the solid parts and a Convective Cooling boundary condition, while the other option includes an air domain.
Efficiently Analyze Acoustic Streaming with Multiphysics Modeling
Acoustic streaming is when sound waves are used to generate steady fluid motion. You can use multiphysics modeling for an efficiency way to analyze this phenomenon.
Investigating the Behavior of an Ancient Organism with CFD Simulation
Researchers used CFD simulation to study the behavior of an ancient organism called the Parvancorina in order to learn more about the ecosystem of the Ediacaran period, 635–541 million years ago.
Celebrating the Life of Robert Hooke
Robert Hooke was a Renaissance-era scientist who developed a law of elasticity (now called Hooke’s law) and published a well-known textbook on microscopy.
Designing a Butler Matrix Beamforming Network with RF Modeling
Check out a tutorial model with implications in developing the 5G mobile network: Butler matrix beamforming networks, which can be combined with phased array antennas for wireless communication.
